Jono has been going to Chinese school on Saturday morning during school terms for the last 2 years. How to make it fun? How to make it relevant? While watching cartoon on "Chinese idiom" may not be too relevant, at least the animation is cute, lively and short. I'm surprised to find a link on the interent with almost all the episodes in one place - gem. Bookmarking here for my benefit!

I'm acutely aware I have this impression probably because I'm living in Australia. In many countries around the world, COVID is still causing tens and thousands of death. We are in lucky country, an island nation, a continent, that shut oursevles from most visitors. It comes with a cost, no doubt.
My best found so far this year? Koorong bookshop. I love bookstores, ever since a kid. I meander around the aisles, reading gives me joy. Period.
